This is easily grasped by the mind and develops it. The mind can research any individual desire and distinguish it from all the others. The purpose of its work is to attain the advantages of the light over darkness in every detail of the existing reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Four Forms: Point, Line, Plane and Cube<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>There exist four forms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Point<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Line<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plane and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cube \u2013 3-D figure, the result of multiplication of the previous forms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These four forms include all the forms of this and the Upper worlds. The details in all the worlds are the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This world is a material, imprinted by the descended Upper Worlds. While working in this world we attain everything in material form and there is no way we can grasp anything beyond it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Creator is therefore is attained in the name&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;that includes all kinds of forms existing in the world, where<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The letter\u00a0<em>Yud<\/em>\u00a0is a point<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The letter\u00a0<em>Hey<\/em>\u00a0is a plane<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The letter\u00a0<em>Vav<\/em>\u00a0is line<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The\u00a0<em>Hey<\/em>\u00a0is a 3D figure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The last letter&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>&nbsp;is a revelation of the first one, but in a more material form that takes place, whereas the three preceding forms take no place at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tip of the letter&nbsp;<em>Yud<\/em>&nbsp;can be attained; hence this name is a source of all the existing names. Every name is the Creator\u2019s manifestation in the creation, meaning reception and bestowal. The Creator\u2019s essence is absolutely unattainable; we apprehend His influence, therefore the entire creation constitutes the Creator\u2019s names. The person researches and combines the received name with the root in his intent for bestowal, i.e. a name is something he receives as a result of his research and attainment of the Giver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The person is called according to the Creator\u2019s manifestation in his attainment, according to His name. Those who are in the dark and cannot see the Creator\u2019s emanations do not have a name. The researcher discovers that a name is a result of the goodness that emanates from the Creator. By this he raises the Creator\u2019s spark that descended upon him above his egoistical desires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, in accordance with completeness of the analysis and the measure of attainment, the person grasps the greatness of the \u201cName\u201d and merges with it in his thoughts. This occurs through raising of&nbsp;<em>MAN<\/em>&nbsp;and descent of&nbsp;<em>MAD<\/em>, through continuous rises and falls. The person\u2019s comprehension grows so tremendously that he ultimately becomes the Creator\u2019s partner in His initial act. In similarity to the Creator the person creates the worlds and fills them as the giver and the receiver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Act of Correction<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the analysis takes place in the person\u2019s thoughts, he is obliged to reveal the Creator up to the level of the world of&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>&nbsp;\u2013 to arouse the bond with Him through practical corrective actions.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Three Covenants<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There exist three covenants:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Of eyes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Of tongue and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Of foreskin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The upper part&nbsp;<em>(GE,&nbsp;<\/em>eyes and mouth) of every lower&nbsp;<em>Partzuf<\/em>&nbsp;is dressed in the lower part&nbsp;<em>(AHP<\/em>) of the upper&nbsp;<em>Partzuf.&nbsp;<\/em>This means that the spiritual is only attained by our \u201ceyes\u201d and \u201cmouth\u201d and our union with the Upper World occurs in these two covenants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why all the forms descend to us from the upper Partzuf to the lower one, from Rav to his disciple, both in writing and orally. By writing and reading with the help of our eyes we share and receive the knowledge about this world and express it by our mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the worlds were created for the wisdom of Kabbalah, to implement these three covenants:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In writing \u2013 with the help of our eyes,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Orally \u2013 with the help of our mouth (tongue) and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Secretly \u2013 by foreskin.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Letters and Dots<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Bestowal manifests through letters and dots. An eye does not perceive more than the letters and dots that the person\u2019s heart can comprehend. A mouth only perceives letters. This kind of perception is referred to as \u201cheart\u201d, because knowledge is received through 32 channels of bestowal. The&nbsp;<em>Gematria<\/em>&nbsp;(numerical value) of 32 designates the Hebrew word&nbsp;<em>\u201cLev\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;(heart), 22 letters and 10 dots that constitute the basic forms of the world filled with wisdom and life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The name of&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;includes in itself all the forms of writing and speech, because the structure of letters consists of lines and dots, where every dot is a contraction and every line is an expansion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Essence and Desires<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The essence and desires indicate two kinds of the light:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>That which refers to the source of its influence and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>That which refers to its recipient.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a basis of the male and female essences, of the line and the&nbsp;<em>Reshimo<\/em>, the soul and the body, the Creator and&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, mercy and judgment. The entire work must be completed in their union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The essence is revealed in desire in accordance with its awakening and readiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The nature of essence is discernible only in the desire in which it is dressed. Desires enable the use of consciousness. Nothing is perceived by consciousness outside of desire in which the essence is dressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We cannot possibly attain the Creator, because all of our attainments refer to the corrected desires, in which the Creator\u2019s essence is dressed. As in all our measurements, we measure not the essence itself, but its manifestation in the measuring device, its interaction with it. Hence, the vision of the Creator\u2019s Providence means the true revelation of Him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Attainment of Matter and Its Form We attain: Each of the
